Hi Nick, > - "ASDOT is more easily remembered" > > For the foreseeable future, after the first 10k assignments of ASN32s in a > particular 16 bit ASN block range (e.g. AS3.x), both ASDOT and ASPLAIN > formats will be represented using similar numbers of digits. I agree, both with your sentiment and the proposal, but the "more easily remembered" tag is a bit more than irrelevant. Whilst the low-order 16 bits might not be memorable, it might be quite easy to keep up with which registries have used which upper 16 bits for a little while, so manual 'whois' queries can be directed to the appropriate server. Cheers, Rob
